Hello,

We can provide upto 24mbit ADSL2+ with 1mbit upload with no b/w cap at £23.99/mo via c&w wholesale.

On a 12 month contract, ADSL installation is free. On 1 month, its £50.

While this does still require a BT line, it is important to note the service is LLU and so does not rely on BT Wholesale.

With regards to needing a BT landline, you can get one installed cheaper via www.opal.co.uk at £99 setup and £12.99/mo



It appears Virgin may charge installation and/or force you to bundle with a phone line too:

Free installation: Free standard installation (normal price £30) is available with bundles including broadband Size: L (10MB), Size: XL (20Mb) or Size: XXL(50Mb). An additional £20 activation fee is payable for 50Mb broadband. This offer is not available with V+ installation or broadband solus. New customers only. Offer ends 10th June 2009. 

General: Installation charges apply (starting from £30 for standard install and, subject to availability, from £15 for Quickstart self-install). An additional £20 activation fee is payable for 50Mb broadband. Payment may be required in advance. All prices include VAT. Prices quoted are for payment by Direct Debit and e-billing. If you pay by non-Direct Debit methods you will incur a monthly £5 charge, payable to Virgin Media Payments, for payment handling services. £1 per month added for paper bills (£1.25 after 1 May 2009). These terms and conditions are in addition to and form part of our standard customer service contract.

Overall, it depends what you want as you mostly already know: Cost vs. Traffic Management

Regards,
Sean McRobbie

Hi all, I'm going to be moving into a new flat just off Perth Road in the next few days and was looking into internet, which I need ASAP really. I don't think either my flatmate, nor me really have much use for a phone so we thought cable so we don't have to pay a £125 connection charge for something that we don't use. I've only ever had Virgin Media and am willing to go with them again if there's nothing better but could do with a... less stict Fair
